What I learned that night was that I believe in the power of fear and humiliation as teaching methods. Obviously, I don’t think they are teaching methods that should be used often, or be at the heart of our pedagogy. But I do think that there are occasions when it is appropriate to let people know that there is no safety net. There are times — not all the time, or most of the time, but occasionally and inevitably — when you have to tell people to shut up and do their job. I’m not happy to discover that I believe this, and in some ways I wish I didn’t. But Warcraft has taught me that I there is a place for “sink or swim” methods in teaching.

"SCRUM requires organizational change, not just software development change. This process impacts when a product is released and how priorities are set. Change becomes an asset rather than a detriment while giving everyone a stake and a portion of the responsibility. All of this creates transparency, but also accentuates organizational weaknesses."
